There is one young lady that is a great standout and she led her team to a very impressive win last night at Kings Way. She is a 5-9 post player whose name is MacKenzie Ellertson. Oh yes, she is only a freshman. MacKenzie poured in 20 points last night to lead the lady Knights over the Castle Rock Rockets 43-40. She was followed in the scoring parade by Hannah Moats with 12.

The lady Rockets were led by Auna Dolan who threw in 19 points in a losing effort. Dolan frustrated the Knights defense all night long continuing to get one rebound after the other and putting the ball back in,
